  • Matt 20:20-28 : 20 A Request for James and John Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, and kneeling down she asked him for a favor. 21 He said to her,“What do you want?” She replied,“Permit these two sons of mine to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom.” 22 Jesus answered,“You don’t know what you are asking! Are you able to drink the cup I am about to drink?” They said to him,“We are able.” 23 He told them,“You will drink my cup, but to sit at my right and at my left is not mine to give. Rather, it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.” 24 Now when the other ten heard this, they were angry with the two brothers. 25 But Jesus called them and said,“You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in high positions use their authority over them. 26 It must not be this way among you! Instead whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave– 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

  • 2 Sam 14:4-9 : 4 So the Tekoan woman went to the king. She bowed down with her face to the ground in deference to him and said,“Please help me, O king!” 5 The king replied to her,“What do you want?” She answered,“I am a widow; my husband is dead. 6 Your servant has two sons. When the two of them got into a fight in the field, there was no one present who could intervene. One of them struck the other and killed him. 7 Now the entire family has risen up against your servant, saying,‘Turn over the one who struck down his brother, so that we can execute him and avenge the death of his brother whom he killed. In so doing we will also destroy the heir.’ They want to extinguish my remaining coal, leaving no one on the face of the earth to carry on the name of my husband.” 8 Then the king told the woman,“Go to your home. I will give instructions concerning your situation.” 9 The Tekoan woman said to the king,“My lord the king, let any blame fall on me and on the house of my father. But let the king and his throne be innocent!” 10 The king said,“Bring to me whoever speaks to you, and he won’t bother you again!” 11 She replied,“In that case, let the king invoke the name of the LORD your God so that the avenger of blood may not add to the killing! Then they will not destroy my son!” He replied,“As surely as the LORD lives, not a single hair of your son’s head will fall to the ground.”
